Re: B-24 Liberator identification
At a guess, I would say that the soldiers in the photo are Hungarian and I guess that it would be easier to find a place to crash land on the plains of Hungry than in Croatia

Re: B-24 Liberator identification
Hi all,
i find this thread really interesting, as one American bomber went down just outside my home village Sveti Djurdj (was Sveti Gjurgj back then) in the last few months of WW2. My place is only 3 km away from Ludbreg (and around 20 km from Hungary) so I suppose that Charles Lindstrom and his crew landed only a few hundred meters by my house. It's interesting that radio was still working and a man from a village used it to listen radio programmes (live football games transmissions) for a number of years after the WW2. I've been searching for additional informations about that crash, but without any major success. All the best, Stjepan from Croatia |
